Netflix dominated American SVOD in March, capturing all ten spots on the top ten most-streamed list for the month. The three most-streamed titles were Young Sheldon, The Resident and Seinfeld. The chart below shows how many views and viewers each title had on the platform where it was most popular. The chart also shows the average number of views per viewer (Vs/Vr), which indicates how much consumers are binging a particular title.
Young Sheldon continues to dominate American SVOD as the most-streamed title in America for the second month in a row with 331.7m views, up from 251.1m in February. Viewers watched an average of 46 episodes each in March,making it the most binged title for the month.
However, the largest audiences were commanded by two new releases: The Gentlemen and 3 Body Problem, both with just over 28m viewers. Viewers of both titles watched an average of five episodes each in March.
Guy Ritchie is behind The Gentlemen, an action-comedy involving an unexpected inheritance of a large estate and noble title by former UN peacekeeper Eddie Horniman. This comes with an even-more-unexpected inheritance of an involvement with marijuana-growing criminals operating on the estate and subsequent embroilment in the Ritchie’s trademark underworld hijinks. The series launched on Netflix on March 7.
3 Body Problem is an adaptation of a science fiction novel by Liu Cixin created by David Benioff, D.B. Weiss and Alexander Woo. It follows a Chinese astrophysicist working for the military who responds to contact from an alien planet following the Cultural Revolution. This implicates a group of present-day scientists to face contact with the powerful aliens.
